SCOOP!! & NEWS Aitraaz: Playing by women’s rules12th Nov 2004 17.30 IST By Aparajita Ghosh A woman driven by desires, a faithful husband who refuses to succumb to temptations of extra-marital sex and a trusting wife who would fight to any length to win back her husband’s honor and esteem – Abbas Mastan’s thriller Aitraaz is a gripping film that entertains without resorting to usual Bollywood stereotypes. The movie, produced by Subhash Ghai , stars Akshay Kumar , Priyanka Chopra and Kareena Kapoor in the leading roles. 
The film starts off like any other ordinary love story (between Akki and Kareena) but picks momentum with the introduction of Priyanka Chopra who plays a manipulative woman eyeing to seduce Akki for her own sexual gratification. Although the theme of a woman seducing a man sounds provocative, the director duo has handled it cleverly so that it is watchable with the family crowd too. The movie reaches a high at the interval point with Priyanka eventually trying to seduce Akshay, even as the latter struggles to resist the temptation and walks out on her, leaving her fuming and screaming at him to ‘finish’ what they had started. The focus shifts to the courtroom in the second half with Priyanka accusing Akki of sexual harassment. At this juncture, two more interesting characters are introduced – Paresh Rawal and Annu Kapoor as the lawyers for Priyanka and Akki. The movie also becomes interesting in the second half because Kareena’s character acquires a new shade. From the passive wife of Akki, she transmutes into a fiery woman who would fight with the vamp Priyanka to win back her husband’s honor and esteem. As the drama builds up for a final showdown, the movie keeps a viewer glued to the seat until the expected end. | ALSO READ scoop ~ Akshay's daring promotional stunt for 'Kambakkht Ishq' ~ 'Ekta has all it takes to win Miss Universe crown' ~ Kambakkht Ishq – Movie Review ~ Don't call me lucky: Katrina ~ Akshay Kumar plans a film for Michael Jackson? ~ I don't believe in luck: Imran Khan ~ 'Munnabhai Chale Amerika' next year ~ Michael Jackson to be buried in Islamic tradition?
